Pull score
5/5

How hard it moved viewers to save, share, and comment.

Why this qualified

792K views on a app demo post, 4774x the account's usual reach. The Outlier score reads reach as a multiple of the account's own median, and that median sits around 166 views, which is why the multiple matters more than the raw view count - it isolates the posts that outran their own channel instead of the ones riding a big following.

Its Pull score of 5/5 (26.5% weighted) measures how hard it moved viewers to save, share, and comment - the actions weighted heaviest because they signal real intent rather than a passing tap. The product it puts forward is TapCook. Reach gets a post seen; Pull is the read on whether it landed.

The counts behind those scores: 31K likes, 432 comments, 29K shares, and 16K saves. Saves and shares are weighted heaviest because they are the actions that carry a post into more feeds.

The full breakdown - why the hook works, the comment-intent read, and the ready-to-shoot dupe kit - lives inside Handler.

Anatomy

The video opens on a skeptical spoken hook doubting a tool's capabilities, paired immediately with screen-recorded footage of the app interface. Over about 86 seconds, the presentation moves through three core beats at a steady, conversational pace. The first beat follows step-by-step onboarding, showing the user inputting a zip code, selecting a grocery store, setting a budget, and toggling dietary preferences. The second beat holds on a loading screen accompanied by spoken voiceover. The final beat reveals the output screens, displaying five days of planned meals totaling 54 dollars alongside the full grocery list. Spoken narration guides each action while the mobile software remains on screen throughout.
